I am sure you know, the fitting of choir uniforms happens tomorrow as part of early registration.

Mrs. Wiener desperately needs help. Our volunteer coordinator, Mrs. Schwing has made tons of calls to homes,  but hasn’t heard much back.

So, I am putting out the call here as well. You get EIGHT points on your grade for working any shift. Yes, you  can work multiple shifts and earn double (or more…) points.

Parents are more than welcome as well!!!
The shifts are:

Tomorrow (Thurs, Aug. 26) at 8am-10:30am or 1pm-3pm

Fri., Aug. 27 at 8am-10:30am or 1pm-3:30pm

Mon., Aug. 30th at 8am-10:30am.

If interested, shoot me a quick message back at (lawtons@monashores.net or on FB) and tell me what shift you are going to do so I can get the info. to Mrs. Wiener.

THANKS!
